As a nation, we love our gardens and spend a considerable amount of time and money on them. As we rush to get those jobs in the garden done, there is a risk that gardeners may injure themselves.

July recipe of the month with Sarah Brown

With the summer months upon us, no one wants to spend time in the kitchen slaving over a hot oven. This is the time of year for freshly grilled fish and meat and cool salads. There are so many options for lovely, filling side dishes and salads that you can make and keep refrigerated. This month’s recipe makes use of bulgur wheat, a healthy protein-rich grain traditionally used in Middle Eastern and North African cooking. Add it to your next Barbecue for a fabulous flavoursome accompaniment to marinated chicken or fish.

Recipe of the month for June with Sarah Brown BSc, DipION, mBANT, rCNHC, Nutritional Therapist

Recently we have welcomed Sarah Brown to the team. Sarah is a registered Nutritional Therapist specialising in digestive health, hormone imbalances, weight management and energy disorders.

She is also the regular author of our recipe of the month which you can view by clicking the link below. This month’s recipe focuses on broad beans. Not only are they a great source of protein, but they’re also a fantastic source of folate, iron, manganese and magnesium.

Sarah suggests there are so many ways to use broad beans and dips are a great way to incorporate vegetables into your daily meals.
